Contemplation on the Odu Ofun Oyekun

For many
It's not death that is truly feared
Nor even the loss of life
It's something far greater
Our fear is rooted in the idea that
There might be a time when
Sharing moments with our
Living loved ones and equally
With those who passed before us
May be impossible
Even faith gives no guarantees
Only hope
One thing that is for sure
Our bodies will become one
With the earth
With the universe
In that way we are reborn
Feeding the never ending cycle
